I'm not really in the "know" when it comes to wheels/tires. I have '98 240 and I'm wanting to squeeze a set of the Bronze Nismo LMs on it.

This is advertised for a 350Z...

"Use only the recommended tire size, P245/40R18 (18 x 8.5 wheel) or P275/40R18 (18 x 9.5 wheel). The lug nuts that are included with this wheel have a 17mm head".

Is there any real difference in regards to fitment on the 240? If so, feel free to reply. I'm open to suggestions and any kind of info, thanks.

Someone on NICO has them on black Kouki. It was bronze and he took the Nismo stickers off. They were gorgeous and in my opinion LM GT-4 looks better on Kouki than Z33. He said rims fit perfect. I don't know about the width though. I have some pics at home. Go for it!!!!

They are +25 F and +30R for offsets... if you want that as a ref

I just wonder what you'd run for a tire with a 19 on a 240...

those sizes are too big

id say run a 225/40/18 front and 245/35/18 rear, but i dont know if youll find that rear size...the 225/40 i listed for the front is a popular 18" size

if you can find them a 235/40 front and 255/35 rear would work even better

I had them on my car and ran 225/40 and 245/40 just fine. You will need spacers.
